Whiskey Mountain

I saw this for the first time recently. This one is indeed an obscure exploitation film but a very tame one without the violence. The film has absolutely no tension or suspense n it has a waterfall bathing sequence without any nudity.

Four bikers travel into the rural mountains to search the region for a number of antique Civil War rifles which are believed to be concealed in a cave on Whiskey Mountain. While stopping at a general store nestled in the mountains, the group are harassed by a group of backwoods locals and later while camping, they are stalked and terrorized by the same fellas.

The makers of this film was so obsessed with Deliverance that they included the banjo music almost throughout the film.

The final shootout showdown is a big joke. The lead actor gets injured twice but manages to shoot down an entire gang without taking cover and somehow his shots kills the villains even if the bullet doesnt touch em.

I liked the babe Roberta Collins who reminded me of Charlize Theron. I loved the bike jump sequence.

Why the character Rudy comes back suddenly after running away during the final shootout is beyond me.

The old man's beard n his laughter will eventually get on ur nerves.

The film cud have been a good survival thriller but alas. Generous with a 6 cos of the bike jump, some good serene locations n a cool poster.

Like "Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace". No, I'm not kidding. I mean, at least this film has people in it that sort of act like recognizable human beings. And any film with WIP-pic stalwart Roberta Collins in it can't be all bad. Maybe mostly, but not all. This is just your sort of run-of-the-mill "Deliverance" rip-off, '70s drive-in fodder from the interesting if not especially talented William Grefe. The fact that it was clearly shot in 'scope and that it was a budget video label (Best Film & Video) that put it out goes a long way toward explaining why it looks so cruddy. So give it a break!

One of the worst movies ever made... If you can get through this movies without falling asleep, then you are doing pretty good, considering no matter how hard you turn up the volume you cant hear what the 'actors' (?) are saying and if you can acually see whats going on from the terrible film (I mean hell if you cant find anything that works better... use a Home movie camara... AT LEAST YOU CAN ACUALLY TELL WHATS GOING ON!)

It is beyond my imagination how people get a movie like this to slip through the cracks, and escape on video... and further more.. how do people making this not know how terrible it is... good god... (!)

After what I have just told you... If you are waiting for me to give you a summary of this piece of trash movie, there is nothing to tell... a group of campers on motorcycles get lost in the woods and a bunch of people terrorize them... or somthing to that... whats more so an action movie than a horror... this 'movie' (?) is of NO interest... if someone acually likes this I litterally feel for you....

Absolute Trash... not even one of those cheap funny flicks to watch go rent.. 'Plan 9 From Outerspace' and have a ball

Being a person who is drawn to films, simply because of how obscure it is, can, from time to time, lead to some interesting discoveries within the world of B-entertainment. Other times, not so much. Enter Whiskey Mountain. Of course it has nothing to do with Moonshine Mountain. Why would it? Whiskey Mountain is more like a semi-ripoff of Deliverance, (allegedly) for the Drive-In crowd, with a positively uncalled for PG rating. A quality which doesn't really hold back this Hixploitation epic as much as one would assume. I guess you could call it a hard PG. However, I must say I expected a tad more from something that came from William Grefe, as I found this obscurity to be slightly underwhelming. Whiskey Mountain is about 2 Bikers, I mean 2 motorcyclists (along with the wives), who end up making some local pot farmers nervous, after they head out to said mountain, lookin' for gold. So, they ain't lookin' for weed, but the farmers don't know that. A very, very long weekend is what follows. The vicious hicks, by no means, intend on letting these people go. Besides an entertaining performance from the legendary William Kerwin, and some quaint scenery, here and there, there ain't a whole lot for Whiskey Mountain to brag about. Perhaps if good ol' Jeffery Allen had been present, there would have been a little more life in this shin-dig. It's just too normal and serious for it's own good. Not Grefe's best, by any means. You may just want to check out Electric Shades Of Grey, and call it a day. Or, if you must discover some 70's Hixploitation that no one cares about, you might be better off with something more like God's Bloody Acre. However, for you vintage/obscure/exploitation completists out there, you could go whole a lot worse than Whiskey Mountain. I say give it a chance. Just be sure to keep your expectations in check. 6/10

"Whiskey Mountain" is an entertaining "Deliverance" clone about four motorcyclists terrorized by a group of marijuana growing hicks.The old laughing man is a funny character.Sadly deceased John Davis Chandler plays the leader of pot growing farmers."Whiskey Mountain" is a pretty tame exploitation flick with no nudity and some gritty violence.The cast is exceptionally good with 70's exploitation veterans like Roberta Collins and Christopher George of "Pieces" fame.The banjo soundtrack is cool with fantastic main country song Whiskey Mountain.I like horror movies made by sadly underrated William Grefe and I can't wait to see "They Came From the Swamp:The Films Of William Grefe" documentary.Can't wait for possible DVD release of "The Devil's Sisters" too.7 out of 10.
